The Two Basic Types of Empaths: Emotional and Cognitive
Emotional Empath, is an Empath that has the ability to physically feel the emotions and energy of the other person, as though their emotions were contagious. This kind of Empathy makes someone well-attuned to another person’s inner emotional world.
Cognitive Empath, is an Empath that has a conscious need to imaginatively put oneself in the place of another. This is done to genuinely understand a person, which requires the consciousness to identify truth with ones immediate perceptions of long-standing thought or belief.
TYPES of EMOTIONAL EMPATHS:
Manifestive Empath:The ability to create their own reality and infuse the reality of others.
Intuitive Empath(Clairempathy): is the ability to sense/feel the attitudes/emotions of others.
Healing Empath:The ability to take in the energy of others and transmute it.
Spiritual Empath:The ability to sense the other persons oneness with their god.
TYPES of COGNITIVE EMPATHS:
Precognitive Empath:The ability to predict a certain outcome and see where paths lead.
Telepathic Empath:The ability to have thoughts, as well as feelings.
Judgement Empath: The ability to distinguish truth from lies and good from evil.
Seer Empath:The ability to see where the emotions are coming from, along with the cause.
RARE TYPES of EMPATHS:
Molecular Empath:The ability to blend their aura with the aura of another person.
Animal Empath:The ability to talk to animals and understand their needs
Shaman Empath:The ability to be one with nature and speak with animals and plant life.
Universal Empath:The ability to possess all of the Empath traits. The psychic-hybrid.
I believe that each individual empath can possess their own unique cocktail of traits. But if it had to be cut and dry, I would say that one of us who run this blog is an Emotional Empath and one of us is a Cognitive Empath. We both have crossover traits though. So this is how I know that all empaths can’t be thrown into one label or type.
So even though we are both empathic, we still have trouble relating and understanding how the other sometimes perceives and experiences things.
If we had to describe ourselves with a simple statement, I think it would be... “He feels things and she just knows things.”
